Hi, I’m Louis, I am a carbon-based bipedal life form descended from an 🐒. In 2022 I made 4000 contributions on GitHub, read 93 books, and written 700,000 words on a public Obsidian. I also founded an AI startup that got incubated in the latest Techstars batch.
I have specific interests in:
- Artificial intelligence (language models, multi-modal, unsupervised, alignment, private computation)
- Transhumanism: BCI, memory streams, second brains, AI assistants, & ways of reducing the friction between our digital and physical mind
- Philosophy of science, science, compound knowledge, prompting humans and machines, structured and deep conversations
- Environment design & personal growth
Additionally, if you want to know more about my personality, here is a cheatsheet.
I’m crazy about big questions, and don’t like weather-conversations so I created langa.me, here are some prompts for you:
- If you could go back in time to erase one thing you said or did, what would it be?
- What is the most rare and unique conversation you have ever had?
- What are you searching for?

People, after all, are universally interested in beauty. Lipstick, jewelry, eye shadow, perfume, hair dyes, high heels-people are just as willing to exaggerate or lie about their sexually alluring traits as any peacock or bowerbird. And as the list above makes clear, it seems as if men seek female beauty rather more than women seek male beauty.

In quantum mechanics, the uncertainty principle (also known as Heisenberg's uncertainty principle) is any of a variety of mathematical inequalities asserting a fundamental limit to the accuracy with which the values for certain pairs of physical quantities of a particle, such as position, x, and momentum, p, can be predicted from initial conditions.

Your body is a small-scale mine of radioactive particles. You receive an annual 40-millirem dose from the natural radioactivity originating inside of you. That’s the same amount of radiation you’d be exposed to from having four chest X-rays. Your radiation dose level can go up by one or two millirem for every eight hours you spend sleeping next to your similarly radioactive loved one.
